Estes Dipteros no han side objeto de revisidn en nues- tro pais. S6lo se conoclan las citas de especies recogidas por ARIAS (1912) en su "Distribucién geogràfica de los Dipteros de Espana" y alguna que otra cita en publicaciones extranjeras, por elle hemos creido interesanté abordar el estudio de los Callipho­ ridae espaüoles en su con junto. Tan sélo la subfamilia Rhiniinae fue estudiada por PERIS (1952) en su revisién mundial de este grupo. Su trabajo nos ha servido de modelo en la redaccién de en­ ta memoria, Los Calliphoridae (Piptera; Cyclorrapha) forman junto con los Sarcophagidae y Rhinophoridae la superfamilia Callipho- roidea. Hay que sedalar que este criterio no es seguido por to- dos los autores, sino que existen discrepancias en cuanto a la categorla taxonémica atribuible a cada uno de estos grupos. SEGUY (1941), OLDROYD (1949), HENNING (1952) y ZUMPT (1956) consideran a los Calliphoridae formados por las subfami- lias Calliphorinae y Sarcophaginae. Por otro lado HALL (1948) y ROBACK (1951) consideran estas familias como familias indepen- dientes. Aqul seguiremos este tSltimo criterio. En cuanto a la clasificacién interna del grupo en subfamilias y tribus, cas! cada autor adopta un criterio diferente, mâs en cuanto a sus ca tegorias, que en cuanto a los grupo s en si. En esta Memoria he— mos adoptado el criterio mâs generalizado y coimîn, no siguiendo los mâs novedosos de LEHRER (19 70 ) y tan solo basados en una in terpretacién un tanto subjetiva de la genitalia masculina. Para situar los grupos objeto de nuestro estudio den- tro del érden Diptera, y separarlos de los restantes grupos que lo in te gran, proponemos la siguiente clave t 1 (2) Antenas relativamente largas, mâs largas que la cabeza y el térax, formadas por mâs de siete artejos (excepte en Nymphomydae).

  • 2017 Report on the Haleakalā High Altitude Observatory Site
    Haleakalā High Altitude Observatory Site Management Plan 2017 Annual Report Introduction to Management of the Haleakalā High Altitude Observatory Site The Haleakalā High Altitude Observatory Site (HO) Management Plan (MP) was approved by the Board of Land and Natural Resources (BLNR) on December 1, 2010. Condition #2 states: “Beginning in November 2012 the University will submit to DLNR an annual report summarizing any construction activities occurring at HO; Habitat Conservation Plans; Monitoring Plans for Invertebrates, Flora, and Fauna; Programmatic Agreements on Cultural Resources; Invasive Species Control Plans and other related plans, The Report should be brief but thorough. This report should also be presented to the Board of Land and Natural Resources for the first year, and every five years thereafter.” Therefore, this report summarizes activities that occurred under the MP from December 1, 2016 to November 30, 2017. The land use described in this report, on activities under the HO MP, qualifies as an identified use in the General Subzone and is consistent with the objectives of the General Subzone of the land. The objectives of the General Subzone (HAR 13-5-14) are to designate open space where specific conservation uses may not be defined, but where urban uses would be premature. The land use is consistent with astronomical research facilities for advanced studies of astronomy and atmospheric sciences. HO is located within a General Subzone of the State of Hawai’i Conservation District that has been set aside for observatory site purposes only. Identified applicable land uses in the General Subzone, include R-3 Astronomy Facilities and (D-1) Astronomy facilities under an approved management plan (HAR 13-5-25).

  • Testing the Accuracy of Vegetation-Based Ecoregions for Predicting the Species Composition of Blow Flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae)

Since the studies on insects in Baja California are scarce, and no fine-scale ecoregions based on the region’s entomofauna is available, this study was designed to test whether the ecoregions based on vegetation can be used for insects, such as Calliphoridae. Nine collecting sites distributed along five ecoregions were selected, between latitudes 29.6° and 32.0°N. In each site, three baited traps were used to collect blow flies from August 2017 to June 2019 during summer, winter, and spring. A total of 30,307 individuals of blow flies distributed in six genera and 13 species were collected. The most abundant species were Cochliomyia macellaria (Fabricius), Phormia regina (Meigen), and Chrysomya rufifacies (Macquart).

  • Diptera: Calliphoridae)1
    Pacific Insects 13 (1) : 141-204 15 June 1971 THE TRIBE CALLIPHORINI FROM AUSTRALIAN AND ORIENTAL REGIONS II. CALLIPHORA-GROUP (Diptera: Calliphoridae)1 By Hiromu Kurahashi Abstract: The Australian and Oriental Calliphora-group consists of the following 5 genera: Xenocalliphora Malloch (6 spp.), Aldrichina Townsend (1 sp.), T Heer atopy ga Rohdendorf (1 sp.), Eucalliphora Townsend (1 sp.) and Calliphora Rob.-Desvoidy (37 spp.). The genus Calliphora Rob.-Desvoidy has a number of members with a greater diversity of form and coloration than do those known from any other faunal region, and it is subdivided into the 5 subgenera: Neocalliphora Brauer & Bergenstamm, Cal­ liphora s. str., Paracalliphora Townsend, Papuocalliphora n. subgen, and Australocalli- phora n. subgen, in the present paper. The following forms are described as new: Calliphora pseudovomitoria, Paracalliphora papuensis, P. kermadeca, P. norfolka, P. augur neocaledonensis, P. espiritusanta, P. porphyrina, P. gressitti, P. rufipes kermadecensis, P. rufipes tasmanensis, P. rufipes tahitiensis, Australocalliphora onesioidea and A. tasmaniae, This second study in the series on Australian and Oriental Calliphorini presents a revision of the Calliphora-group based on a much greater amount of material than the early authors had. Most of the specimens examined were available in the Department of Entomology, Bernice P. Bishop Museum, Honolulu. I have raised the number of species to 46 which belong to 5 genera: Xenocalliphora Malloch, Aldrichina Townsend, Triceratopyga Rohdendorf, Eucalliphora Townsend and Calliphora Rob.-Desvoidy. The former 4 are either monobasic or with few species in contrast with the 38 species of the last genus. They have several plesiomorphous characters, i.e., dichoptic condition of eyes in <^, in spite of a more or less high degree of specialization with respect to some features such as hypopygium.

Sixty five valid subgenera, 447 valid species and 251 valid subspecies are recognized. The following new synonymy is established: Chrysolina (Apterosoma MOTSCHULSKY) (=Caudatochrysa BECHYNÉ), Ch. (Synerga WEISE) (=Chrysonotum J. SAHLBERG), Ch. (Sulcicollis J. SAHLBERG) (=Minckia STRAND), Ch. (Bittotaenia MOTSCHULSKY) (=Gemellata J. SAHLBERG, partim), Ch. (Hypericia BEDEL) (=Gemellata J. SAHLBERG, partim), Ch. (Ovosoma MOTSCHULSKY) (=Gemellata J. SAHLBERG, partim, =Byrrhiformis J. SAHLBERG, partim), Ch. (Colaphoptera MOTSCHULSKY) (=Byrrhiformis J. SAHLBERG, partim), Ch. aeruginosa poricollis MOTSCHULSKY (=lobicollis FAIRMAIRE), Ch. apsilaena DACCORDI (=rosti kubanensis L.MEDVEDEV et OKHRIMENKO), Ch. fastuosa biroi CSIKI (=fastuosa jodasi BECHYNÉ, 1954), Ch. differens FRANZ (=trapezicollis BECHYNÉ), Ch. difficilis ussuriensis JACOBSON (=pubitarsis BECHYNÉ), Ch. difficilis yezoensis MATSUMURA (=exgeminata BECHYNÉ, =nikinoja BECHYNÉ), Ch. marginata marginata LINNAEUS (=finitima BROWN), Ch. pedestris GEBLER (=pterosticha FISCHER DE WALDHEIM), Ch. reitteri saxonica DACCORDI (=diluta KRYNICKI). Ch. elbursica LOPATIN is treated as a subspecies of Ch. tesari ROUBAL, Ch. unicolor alaiensis LOPATIN - as Ch. dieckmanni alaiensis, and Ch. poretzkyi JACOBSON as a subspecies of Ch. subcostata GEBLER. Ch. peninsularis BECHYNÉ is a distinct species, but a subspecies of Ch. aeruginosa, Ch. brahma TAKIZAWA is a good species, not a synonym of Ch. lia JACOBSON (= freyi BECHYNÉ), and Ch. dzhungarica JACOBSON is a good species, not a synonym of Ch.

Current address: European Bioinformatics Institute, EMBL-EBI, Wellcome Genome 11 Campus, Hinxton, Cambridgeshire, UK 12 13 * Correspondence to [email protected] 14 15 Abstract: New cellular functions and developmental processes can evolve by modifying 16 existing genes or creating novel genes. Novel genes can arise not only via duplication or 17 mutation but also by acquiring foreign DNA, also called horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Here 18 we show that HGT likely contributed to the creation of a novel gene indispensable for 19 reproduction in some insects. Long considered a novel gene with unknown origin, oskar has 20 evolved to fulfil a crucial role in insect germ cell formation. Our analysis of over 100 insect 21 Oskar sequences suggests that Oskar arose de novo via fusion of eukaryotic and prokaryotic 22 sequences. This work shows that highly unusual gene origin processes can give rise to novel 23 genes that can facilitate evolution of novel developmental mechanisms.
